change of plan, didnt buy the big ones, realised that they would be more difficult to cover and that the main user is a 13 month old baby who probably wont care if barney is shown in 7" or 9" so, today picked up 2 x 7" screens, they are a lot closer to the same size as the original a8 headrests and the "leather" part comes of.

I hope to change the outer part and replace it with the leather from my originals, not sure if this will work yet but if it does - it at least garantees the same colour.

the plan was/is to take the power leads out the bottom of the seat neatly up in to the centre console and grab 12V from the back of the cigar lighter.

had a quick check with my fingers earlier and a look inside from the rear cigar socket plate, its pretty tight at the sides, elsawin shows some kind of floor covering position rods holding it in place

damm these things are well built

have to explore it tommorow with a few tools and a torch
